Blog 3 Real collaboration is a joy!

This team worked very well together. We found times to meet and discuss the project on Zoom, and then everyone worked on the project in between as we had time.  Each one of us came forward to contribute in our areas of strength, and as the project progressed, it was clear that collectively we had serendipitously found a team that worked!

I appreciated that the meeting times on Zoom were focused, productive, and professional. The tone in the group was friendly and supportive. I felt everyone was comfortable to express their thoughts and ask questions.  I thought we would have to meet more often; what I found was that once everyone clearly understood what we needed to do in our initial meeting, everyone just jumped in and worked whenever they could. It was a relief to find that others were good at graphics, proofreading, checking links, and everything else needed to complete the case study. I cannot really think of anything that did not work well. We are all busy so working asynchronously as needed allowed us to keep moving ahead.

The best way to communicate concerns would be to keep the focus on the project, and not on individual performance. It is also important to maintain our spirit of aloha. Mahalo nui loa to Leilani, Bryan and Kahealani; imua kākou!
